Archaeology Work in The Beginning
A few days ago I was sent to do my first archaeology dig as a “professional.” Well, as in, I get paid for the work I do, but I certainly don’t feel like I am a paid archaeologist. I can do the p...

The last several days have been hectic, but in a good way for once. First, I got the monkey off my back and received my driver’s license. Finally felt good to do that, now the next step is gett...
9/3/25 - Pressure for M.A. in The Beginning
Graduated from university in May. Told my mom that I would maybe apply to get my M.A. in a year or two once I get more experience in my field (the field that I study you mostly start off with se...

The sun may be out, but my head is too dark to fill the warmth. I want to get out of here - I NEED to get out of here. A called a close friend of mine a few nights ago. We poorly planned an ...
6/27/25 - :/ in The Beginning
As expected, failed my driving test. I live in a state where you unfortunately don’t actually go out on the road to do your test but instead take it in a parking lot. Did every manevour correctl...

Been an up and down week. Had a few presentations, a few tests. Did good. The bad? One of my cats died. Very sad. Drank outside and watched this bluegrass band on Wednesday, was pretty good. Thu...

Glenn Miller’s “Moonlight Serenade” is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever created. I once got really high on edibles and cried for 3 hours straight. That’s all.

Sometimes when I look at someone I get sad about the fact that they’re going to die someday. Is that just me? A girl came on the elevator today, just was a very sweet, pure person. She talks li...

Currently sitting looking across from the ocean and sunning myself. I’m lucky enough to live somewhere where I can be in 80 degree weather in March. There’s definitely downsides to where I live,...
2/24/25 - Up & Down Week in The Beginning
This week has just been a weird one filled with up and down emotions. For the past month, I have submitted job application after application. I easily have submitted over 30, usually averaging 2...

2/06/2025 in The Beginning
It has been a while since I’ve written on here. The truth is though, that nothing really exciting has been going on in my life, although I can’t say that’s a bad thing. Hopefully I’ll actually s...
October 31, 2024. in The Beginning
.Listened to Kerouac’s October in the Railroad Earth while high. Everything just feels slowed down and everything is at peace. I have a strange feeling of wanting to go out this Halloween, but t...
September 26 2024 in The Beginning
I have a few brief moments where I can go on here and type away with what I’ve been doing with myself over the last few months. I’m currently about two months into my first semester at universit...
6/04/24 in The Beginning
8:15 P:M Just awoke from a nap and stumbled outside to the patio while the sun was still out. It’s a beautiful night; warm and quiet, except for the occasional screech of a bird or when the choir...
May 20 2024 - Confidence? in The Beginning
Maybe what I’m about to say will sound cynical, arrogant, brash, bold, or just plain fucking stupid. After all, I am nothing but a 21 year old man who hasn’t had the time to figure out the world....
5/1/24 in The Beginning
I didn’t realize my last entry was all the way back in February. The days just seem to collide together into one continuous cycle and I lose track easily of the days. Especially when it comes to ...
2/26/24 - What can I do? in The Beginning
What a disappointment for this to be the first entry I’ve had in almost two months. And for what? To mention the same sort of things I’ve written about time and time again? That when I look back ...

Hope that this new year brings new personal growth and adventure. I hope that I am better as a human being then I was last year. I hope to leave all my fears and worries in the past behind, only ...

Traveling into the mountains in a few days’ time. Sorting out my stash of books to take with me for pleasure. I haven’t been able to read as much as I would like, due to my studies. So, I’ve been...
November 29, 2023 in The Beginning
Every time I decide to write an entry on here, I feel empty. I want to write on here more but I often feel that I have nothing to say. I feel unsatisfied with my life, which admittedly I always h...
11/8/2023 in The Beginning
Since I was a child, I always wanted to see the world. I never was satisfied with the idea of staying in one location for long periods of time, at least in my hometown. As a young boy, I often dr...
Medieval thought on the universe & structure in The Beginning
Just a quick summary of what I’ve been reading recently. In no way does this cover in detail everything. Instead, just several topics in a short summary for those who might be interested. Just a ...
November 6 in The Beginning
I haven’t been able to login in over a month on my phone. Very frustrating, but alas I am alive. I refuse to believe that it is already the 6th of the month. These last few months have gone by to...
September 25 in The Beginning
I went to the poetry meeting today. Kind of a disappointment but I guess that’s what happens when you set your expectations and then being grounded by reality. Small group (which I expected), the...
